Tomato Growing Info

When to Plant:

Tomato seeds should be sowed indoors 6-8 weeks before last frost date. Transplants should be hardened off before placing outdoors. Transplant after last frost date and soil temperature has reach 60°F.

Starting Seedlings:

Start indoors under controlled conditions. Use soilless grow media. Place in a sunny window with at least 8 hours of sunlight. Water only when soil feels dry to touch. No fertilizer is needed until transplanting.

Hardening Off:

Slowly introduce your tomato seedlings to the outdoor environment one week before transplanting. Each day add more time outside. Start with shade and no wind outdoors and work your way up gradually to sun and wind.

Fertilizing:

Add 1 ounce of high phosphorus fertilizer (5-10-10) in hole before transplanting. Fertilize again when first tomatoes begin to appear and then again when first tomato is picked.
